Mares prefer privacy at foaling time. If possible, mares will delay birth until human observers are not around. Mares generally foal at night. One study, for example, indicated that approximately 80 percent of foals were born between midnight and 6 a.m.
As far as the stallion is concerned, he is ready to breed anytime or anywhere. The mare is different: she is classified as a seasonal breeder. She does not cycle all year long and does not accept the stallion when she is not in heat. In this article Robert N. Oglesby, DVM, explains how mares cycle.his is variable from mare to mare and even in the same mare during different times of the year. Towards the beginning and end of the breeding season mares are in heat longer. Fairly constant is that mares go out of heat 24 to 48 hours after ovulation. This is very important to remember if you breed horses.
